Who said horizontal stripes are unflattering?

Because I couldn't disagree more.

In fact, I looove the look of thin, horizontal stripes on a boatneck top for the summer.

Which is why I bought this darling, lightweight "vintage bateau top" to go with the faded denim Minnie pants from J.Crew for the spring and summer seasons.

I'll be wearing this grey ensemble as I venture to DC this morning. Nate and I are headed there for his sister's wedding shower. Have a good weekend, everyone!

Monday I'll announce the winner of the West Elm pillow giveaway AND the newest additions to my Etsy shop.

I have the J Crew top as well, and I find myself trying to wear it every single day. Now I want to find one in navy too.

This top, or a variation thereof, is all the rage this season; designers from high to low have featured them. I think you'll be happy with your purchase throughout the entire Summer. Stay Stylishly FAB!
